Introduction to Career Development Interventions
The first chapter introduces students to the importance of career development
interventions in the 21st century to help individuals adapt to complex career concerns of today’s
workers. Competent career practitioners must possess knowledge and skills required for
providing effective career assistance that encompasses and transcends those required for general
counseling. Preparing students to address career counseling needs with their clients, means
helping them see the connection between mental health, wellness, and career. Career counseling
is not delegated to administering and interpreting occupational assessments, but is inextricably
tied to counseling whereby clients can more clearly articulate their identity and what matters to
M
them. Career counselors and practitioners seek to empower people to derive meaning from their
life experiences and to translate that meaning into rewarding occupational choices. Specifically,
ED
this chapter (1) traces the meaning of work across time (2) highlights the link between work and
worth (3) provides an overview of systematic career development intervention while defining
specific career related terms (4) highlights important events in the history of career development
interventions, as well as the significant impact of Frank Parsons, (6) identifies specific career
C
counseling competencies and performance indicators, and (7) discusses future trends in career
development interventions

The Meaning of Work Across Time

• The way in which individuals viewed work has greatly differed throughout history

• Shift occurred at the beginning of the 20th century as individuals as individuals

• Now in the 21st century (due to downsizing and a global economy) many
R
organizations are flattening and leaving workers feeling betrayed, anxious and
insecure about the future (Savickas, 1993).
• The elimination of vertical hierarchies challenges the definition of a “successful”

roles throughout the course of one’s life.
